Abstract

OLANO DEL CASTILLO, Reyna; GUERRA CHACON, Alfonzo Mauro  and  YAURI RIVERA, Edgar Ricardo. Using YouTube songs to improve English communication skills in Peruvian university students. EduSol [online]. 2024, vol.24, n.86, pp. 98-108.  Epub Jan 30, 2024. ISSN 1729-8091.

The objective was to identify the existing influence between didactic experiences through YouTube songs and improvements in basic English language skills in university students, which revealed a positive mean correlation (rs=0.664) between didactic experiences using YouTube songs and the improvement of English skills. Some 60.4% of university students prefer to learn English face-to-face, while 47.3% benefit from ICT integration and encourage class participation. With a bilateral significance (P < 0.05), the importance of didactic planning (rs=0.498), decision making (rs=0.582) and innovation (rs=0.636) in the development of English communication skills is confirmed.

Keywords : Didactic experiences; English skills; Information and communication technologies (ICTs); Active participation.
